MTL - It’s Hard For a Good Wife and Mother-Chapter 139
The furnishings in Shi Xin's room are low-key and luxurious. Every piece of furniture, decoration, and collectibles are of great value, but the air is filled with a strong smell of medicine and a depressing stale smell, which makes people feel suffocated and extremely uncomfortable. .
However, what made Mo Dai even more uncomfortable was that Shi Xin was out of breath, mixed with coughing sounds, which were clearly similar to last words that made people feel sympathetic.
He actually confidently asked Shi Mo to give up his own life, take care of her little daughter in place of her who was about to die, and bear the burden of the rise and fall of the entire Shifu! Not to mention that Shi Mo is already married, if she treats Shi Mo well, it's fine, but she doesn't do her part as a mother herself, so why ask Shi Mo to sacrifice for her?
Shi Mo didn't react too much after hearing Shi Xin's outrageously selfish words, his heart was already numb: "Mom!" Shi Mo called out, as if he had finally let go of something, and his tone was extremely calm, "This is This is the last time I call you, don't worry, as a son, I will take care of your funeral. Your daughter Shi Rui has her own father, Fei Hao, to take care of her. The most important thing is, I will not interfere with Shifu's affairs."
Shi Xin stared with anger when she heard this, and her fingers gripping Shi Mo's wrist became more and more forceful. The nails that hadn't been cut for a long time sank deeply into Mo Shi's flesh, and a trace of blood flowed out. Using force, I wish I could directly strangle Shi Mo to death.
"You, you bastard...you're going to die...cough cough...I, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go...cough cough..." Shi Xin cursed hysterically, there was no trace of looking at his son in his muddy eyes, clearly He regarded Shi Mo as an enemy.
Mo Dai looked startled, and wanted to knock that old woman unconscious with a palm!
But Shi Mo didn't move, as if Shi Xin was not pinching his flesh, and there was a relieved smile on his lips: "My life, I once held it in front of you with my own hands for you to drive, but you dismissed it. Throw me to a rotten person like Qin Jiu like throwing away a piece of trash that disgusts you. Qin Jiu went to jail, and I was reduced to a member of the official support team and put into a prison car. You didn't even look at me. At that time, we The relationship between mother and child has been completely broken."
Shi Mo broke away Shi Xin's fingers pinching his wrist one by one, and continued: "It's my fault to be able to come to see you today, and to think that you have even the slightest concern for me. I lost badly." , but I was completely relieved, Shi Xin, thank you so much for making my heart that has been obsessed with obsession for many years finally repent. From now on, I only have my wife, my children, and my wife's family in my heart. The Shi family will be with me again Nothing to do with it!"
"You, get out...you're going to die...cough cough..." Shi Xin was so angry that he couldn't stop coughing, a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat, and when he was about to pass, Mu Qianche stepped forward to help her up, putting his hands on her back She slapped it violently, and immediately picked up a towel beside her pillow to catch the **** phlegm flying out of her mouth.
Shi Xin, who had regained his breath for a while, suddenly turned his eyes, and a sneer appeared on his blue lips: "The Shi family has nothing to do with you? Hehe, as long as you still have the blood of my Shi family on your body, you will never want to put aside the relationship." It’s fine if you die in the official match, since you didn’t die, you have to live for the Shi family! Cough cough…”
Mo Shi also sneered: "You mean that unless I die, I have to work for the Shi family all my life?"
"Not bad!" Shi Xin replied as a matter of course.
Shi Mo suddenly burst out laughing, tears streaming down his face: "Shi Xin, where did you get the arrogance to say such words? You are really confused, wife master, brother Mu, let's go!"
Mo Mo pulled Mo Dai out of the room, while Shi Xin cursed weakly behind him.
Fei Hao and Shi Rui stood by the door tremblingly, when they saw Shi Mo and his group come out, they couldn't help shrinking back.
Yao Xi also stood by the door, naturally listening to their conversation, although he felt sorry for his eldest son, but there was nothing he could do, and he also hoped that his eldest son would stay in the Shi family to preside over the overall situation.
Shi Mo and Yao Xi bid farewell, Yao Xi wanted to keep him, but in the end he held back, his son had suffered enough, he didn't want him to be dragged down by the Shi family again.
Just when Shi Mo was about to leave, the housekeeper Su Lan suddenly knelt down in front of him, raised her head after three consecutive beeps and begged: "Master, please stay and take charge of the overall situation!"
Fei Hao was deeply dissatisfied with the performance of the housekeeper Su Lan, but also afraid of Shi Mo's aura, so he could only stare at Su Lan with hatred.
"Butler Su, I'm already married as a husband, I'm inconvenient about the Shi family's affairs..."
"Young master, please save us!" Su Lan kowtowed again, at the same time, many servants rushed in behind her, kowtowing to Mo Mo, and asked Mo Mo to save them in unison.
Shi Mo was surprised, and suddenly sensed that something was wrong, he suddenly turned his head to look at Fei Hao, only to see his pale face and twinkling eyes.
When Shi Mo checked the account books at the check-in room, he sneered while looking at them. After reading it, he was so angry that he threw all the account books in front of Fei Hao.
"However, in just a few months, you are really capable, so you want to vacate Shi's house so impatiently?" Shi Mo said coldly.
Mo Dai and Mu Qianche both followed behind Shi Mo, and glanced at the account books, and found that most of the Shi family's stores across the country were in deficit, and there were a few businesses that were booming. Now the owner has been replaced by the Fei family. There was only an empty frame left, and the servants who had stayed in the mansion for a long time, including the housekeeper Su Lan, were said to have been told by Fei Hao that they would leave the Shi mansion after Shi Xin was buried.
Feihao's complexion turned blue and red, maybe he had achieved his goal, and he didn't need to be afraid anymore, so he raised his head and said sternly: "I gave birth to the eldest daughter of the Shi family, and I deserve all these, but you, marrying one after another People's broken shoes are not qualified to intervene in Shifu's affairs!"
"Slap!" Fei Hao just finished speaking, and Modai walked over and slapped him hard, Fei Hao's cheeks were swollen to a scary height, and he even felt that his teeth were loosened by that slap , There is a taste of blood in the mouth.
"I don't easily hit men, but you hurt my husband, I have to, hope you understand!" Mo Dai looked at Fei Hao coldly, and the last sentence "hope you understand" made Fei Hao almost feel angry go.
And all Mo Dai's anger disappeared in an instant because of Mo Dai's actions. This is the matter of the Shi family. He has decided not to interfere anymore, so why should he be angry about it?
After all, Shi Mo left Shifu, and in the carriage, Mo Dai asked him again: "Do you really want me to save her?"
Shi Mo shook his head, and hugged Mo Dai into his arms: "The doctor said that the medicine has no effect, wife master, you are not a doctor, you can't save her, everyone has their own life, none of us can save her!"
Hearing this, Mo Dai suddenly felt moved, this time she had selfish intentions, she didn't want to save Shi Xin who was obsessed with selfishness and cruelty to her son, but she was indeed Shi Mo's biological mother, so she was always entangled in her heart. Mo Mo's words made her realize what she had gradually neglected all along. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the natural norm.
Mu Qianche took a deep look at Shi Mo, and felt that Shi Mo looked pleasing to the eye for the first time, and he also secretly made up his mind that Mo Dai would not be allowed to use her supernatural powers to heal diseases and save people next time.
Because of the Shi family's affairs, Mo Dai's family did not leave the imperial capital and continued to live in the prime minister's mansion.
Three days later, did Shi Xin go? Shi Mo went to the Shi family to discuss Shi Xin's funeral. Afterwards, Fei Hao took his daughter Shi Rui and left the Shi Mansion, leaving a mess waiting for Shi Mo to clean up.
The shop was running low, and the Shifu was already an empty shell, and couldn't afford to support many servants, so Shi Mo gave them a considerable amount of money out of his own pocket to let them leave the Shifu, leaving only Uncle Shitou with Yao Xi.
Shi Xin's other servants also prepared a way out for themselves early on. There were ten of them in total, and Shi Mo gave each of them a thousand taels of silver. With this money, they opened a small shop, bought some fertile land and rented it out, and it was more than enough to live by collecting rent. .
In the end, only Yao Xi, Uncle Shitou and Mo Mo's three younger brothers who were under fifteen years old were left in the Shifu.
Shi Mo simply sold the Shifu and those shops that were running low, and bought a three-entry house for them to live in, and asked Li Xianlai from Xianlaiju to send them a fixed amount of monthly silver for their expenses.
Since then, the Shifu has ceased to exist. The plaque of the royal craftsman issued by the former emperor was collected by Yao Xi and placed together with Shi Xin's spiritual tablet.
Shi Mo has been busy for more than half a month. Although Mo Dai is urging him to eat and sleep, he still lost a lot of weight. After everything stabilized, Shi Mo slept for a day and a night before waking up. After waking up, he found that Mo Dai The three brothers Dai, Xu Shaolin, Mu Qianche, Xiao Sheng, Mo Wuyun and the two younger brothers were all watching him with concern by his bedside.
Shi Shi suddenly felt full and warm in his heart, and tears flowed down his face.
Xu Shaolin touched his head, and his eyes were hot: "Good boy, it's all over, don't forget that you still have a baby in your stomach, you should be fine!"
Shi Mo nodded, took the handkerchief Xu Shaolin handed him to wipe away his tears, and said, "Father, I'm hungry!"
The Mody family didn't leave until mid-February.
Before leaving, Zhao Tianzan was a little reluctant to part with Mo Xiaoyu. The two little guys didn't know each other. Although when they stayed together, they often started fighting when they disagreed, but because of this, they became close.
Zhao Tianzan gave Mo Xiaoyu his favorite jade whistle, and then reached out to ask Mo Xiaoyu for a gift in return. Mo Xiaoyu blankly said that he had no gift to give him, Zhao Tianzan suddenly became angry: "I gave you a whistle , you have to give me something too!"
Mo Xiaoyu thought for a while, then returned the jade whistle to Zhao Tianzan: "I don't want it anymore!"
"How can you do this? I have already given it to you, how can I take it back?" Zhao Tianzan said angrily.
"I have nothing to give you!" Mo Xiaoyu was also troubled. He didn't have many toys. The little jade pig that Qing's father gave him has been kept by him. The rocking horse and cloth ball are at home. Right now, there is only one bamboo. The dragonfly is at hand, but the bamboo dragonfly is very old, Zhao Tianzan would not want it.
"I don't care, you have to give me something!" Zhao Tianzan looked at Mo Xiaoyu, and suddenly said, "Just the bamboo dragonfly, you give me that!"
"You really want this?" Mo Xiaoyu was a little surprised, "It's very old!"
"Don't be afraid, I want that!"
"Okay, here you are!"
Zhao Tianzan held the bamboo dragonfly, and then he calmed down.
Seeing that his elder brother and Zhao Tianzan exchanged gifts, Mo Xiaoyi also gave Zhao Tianzan an amber pebble that was his treasure, and then looked at him with **** eyes, hoping that he could also give him a jade pebble. whistle.
Although Zhao Tianzan didn't pay much attention to Mo Xiaoyi, a little kid, but people gave him things, and he would be too petty if he didn't return the gift, so he tore off the jade pendant on his body and gave it to Mo Xiaoyi. Although Mo Xiaoyi wanted the jade whistle more, but the jadeite jade pendant was carved with many small birds with long tails, which was also very pretty, so he smiled happily.
Zhao Yingzi was a little reluctant to let Mo Dai go, she hugged Mo Dai and acted like a baby in Luyixuan, but Zhao Wuniang who came in saw her, kicked her ass, and kept cursing: "Who did you follow? No wonder you are so It's been a long time since I gave birth to a grandson, so I have a habit of cutting off my sleeves! I don't care if you want to, this year you must give birth to a granddaughter!"
Zhao Yingzi frowned and said, "Mom, as long as you keep working hard, I don't plan to have children! I don't want my children to be older than their uncles!"
Zhao Wuniang froze for a moment, then blushed in embarrassment, then kicked over again, scolded "you bastard", then flung her sleeves and left, completely forgetting that she was here to see off Mo Dai's family.
When the family came to the Imperial Capital, they sat in two carriages, one owned by the family and the other hired. When returning, Mo Dai also hired a carriage, and prepared enough dry food and drinking water.
Originally, Mo Dai wanted to test with Qiong Qing whether they could transfer the whole family home at once, but she was worried that if so many of them disappeared together, others would be suspicious, so she decided to go home in a carriage honestly.
The journey went smoothly. Qiong Qing, who was prone to motion sickness, was full of energy this time, while the three pregnant women felt a little uncomfortable. Although they couldn't vomit, they didn't have much appetite. Mo Dai was terribly worried, and wanted to nourish them with her own blood, but they were unanimously opposed and scolded severely, saying that she didn't cherish her body, so Mo Dai had no choice but to give up.
But Maru Niu secretly rubbed against Modai's ankle, bared his white teeth, and fawned on his face: "Girl, I've been dizzy recently, my limbs are weak, can you give me a drop of blood?"
Mo Dai looked at Maru Niu with a half-smile: the husbands said, I have to cherish my body!
Maru Niu gave Modai a disdainful look: Bah! I see through you! There is no humanity in the opposite sex! You are an ungrateful, bullying little **** who doesn't love small animals!
Modai: You can scold me, if I meet Lingshui tomorrow, I will sue it!
Maru Niu flicked: You... well, can't I stop talking about it?
After bumping in the carriage for more than half a month, the family finally returned to Luling Town.
At noon on the second day of March, the carriage drove to the door of the house.
When Mo You saw them, his eyes were red. These days, he was afraid that he would never see them again.
Ci glaze also wiped away tears, he didn't feel it when they were together, but only felt missing when they were apart, in the past he would only miss Qiong Qing, but this time he missed Mo Dai and his family. Ciena stood beside Qiongqing to serve him as before, but his eyes couldn't help looking at Modai. It's been two months since he saw her. Why does he think that Modai looks more and more beautiful?
Qiongqing called Ciena twice before he suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly asked: "My lord, why did you call me?"
"You stepped on my foot." Qiongqing found that Ciena's face was red, and knew that he had been looking at Modai just now, so she couldn't help but sighed.
As soon as Ciena lowered her head, she saw that she was stepping on Qiongqing's feet, she was so remorseful that she slapped herself twice: "Caena really deserves to die, young master, please punish me!"
Before Qiongqing could stop him from slapping himself, he just said calmly: "I don't blame you, go and help me pack up."
"Yes, I'll go right away!" Ciena hurried to the carriage to help get things.
Qiongqing glanced at Ciena, then looked at Mo Dai, and couldn't help smiling, she really is a fair lady, a gentleman is so good!
After Mo Dai came back, she glanced around but still couldn't see Gui Yi, thinking in her heart, could it be that the child couldn't wait to go back already? So he casually asked, "Moyou, where did Guiyi go?"
"He went to the odd goods store. These days, he usually goes to the odd goods store during the day and comes back to rest at night. What he said was so strange that we couldn't talk to each other. Even if he stayed at home during the day, he was alone with him. His white cat was muttering something we couldn't understand!" Mo You said.
Modai nodded. It is true that Guiyi's native dialect of Yunguo is a bit jerky. Although he looks like a twelve-year-old boy, he is a wizard after all, and he can be considered a master of the world. After all, he will always have a sense of loneliness.
Mo Xiaoyu and Mo Xiaoyi were very happy when they returned home, kicking their cloth ball back and forth in the corridor of the backyard, while Mo Xiaoman struggled from time to time to get down from his father Mo Wuqing's arms to meet his brothers. play together.
Mo Dai suddenly remembered that she had promised Mo Xiaoyi to come back to make him a birthday cake. The sixth day of February was Mo Xiaoyi's birthday, but because of the inconvenience of living in the prime minister's residence, she only cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for him. Modai went to the pastry shop to check the ingredients. There were still flour, sucrose, and eggs, but the condensed milk and jam were all eaten, and they had to wait until they went to the street to replenish the goods before making them.
After the things on the carriage were moved, Cilan carried a brocade box into the backyard and asked Xu Shaolin where to put it. Xu Shaolin didn't know what was in the brocade box. Just as he was about to open it, Mo Dai saw it with sharp eyes and hurriedly shouted: "Father." , don't open it!"
Xu Shaolin stopped his hands, Mo Dai breathed a sigh of relief, but Mo Mo raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is it? So mysterious?"
Mo Dai walked over to take the brocade box in Cilan's hand and walked towards her room. Damn Zhao Yingzi, told her not to use this thing. After all, she was still stuffed in the trunk of the carriage. Fortunately, she was not found just now , if she is seen by everyone, will she still have the face to face others?
But the more she hides it, the more curious Mo Mo is, and other people are also curious, but they all respect Mode, and they are not so curious that they have to look at it, unlike Mo Mo, who is anxious to scratch his heart and lungs , I feel uneasy if I don’t see it.
So Shi Mo followed Modai and pushed the door open, huh? In broad daylight, it was actually plugged in? There are ghosts, there are definitely ghosts!
Shi Mo's curiosity became more and more intense, and his mind was running fast. When Modera opened the door and came out, Shi Mo suddenly fell towards her.
Mo Dai grabbed Shi Mo and asked with concern: "What's the matter, are you tired? Let's go, I'll help you to rest in your room, I'll make lunch, is there anything you want to eat in particular?"
Hearing Mo Dai's gentle words, Mo Mo suddenly felt that he was a bit sorry for playing tricks on Mo Dai, but he really wanted to know what was in the brocade box, so he continued to pretend: "I'm a little dizzy, I want to go to the wife's room. Sleep, okay?"
Just as Mo Dai was about to agree, she suddenly thought of something, so she refused: "No, my room is a mess, you should go back to yourself..."
While Mo Dai was talking, Cilan suddenly answered: "Miss Mo, your room is not messy. Mo You and I will help you clean the room every two days, and take out the bedding to dry!"
Mo Dai's eyelids twitched, while Mo Shi secretly laughed, the enamel is well done!
"Wife master, people really want to rest in your room!" Shi Mo began to grind softly.
"no!"
"Why not? Could it be that there are some shady secrets in your room?" Shi Mo began to provoke.
"If I say no, I won't!"
Mo Dai's attitude was quite firm this time, Mo Mo had no choice but to retreat temporarily, and went to his room. Before going in, he did not forget to say that he wanted to eat roast chicken made by Modai for lunch, the kind brushed with honey.
Because Xu Shaolin was busy packing things, Xiao Sheng and Mo Wuyun were pregnant, Mo Wufeng looked at the child lightly, Mu Qianche couldn't count on it, Mo You and Ciena were half-baked, so Mo Dai and Mo Wufeng prepared lunch together.
Mo Wufeng seldom cooks with Modai, and he is a little nervous because he is worried that his cooking will not catch Modai's eyes.
However, Mo Dai handed over the cooking and cooking tasks to Mo Wufeng, and she was only responsible for lighting the fire and roasting the chicken. At first, Mo Wufeng still felt a little on his back, but gradually he became more comfortable. While doing his own things, he watched Mo Dai kill the chicken, scald it with boiling water, and then carefully pluck the hair to remove the internal organs.
Mo Wufeng loves to watch Modai doing things, he always finds it pleasing to the eye.
Mo Dai noticed that Mo Wufeng was looking at her, so she raised her head and gave Mo Wufeng a smile, and Mo Wufeng's heart fluttered, and her whole body was a little swayed. Mo Wufeng's face was a little red and hot, he felt a little embarrassed, he was still shy even though they were both husband and wife, he decided to find a topic to chat with Modai, so he said—
"My wife, the brocade box you're holding today is from Miss Zhao, right? What's in it?"
Mo Dai was stunned, and almost tore the whole chicken in her hand, it's really a pot that can't be opened and which pot to carry!
